The Social Security (Further Methods of Recovery) Regulations 2026
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
27 Maximum deductions (regular direct deduction orders)
(1) The total amount of deductions to be made under a regular direct deduction order in relation to any period of 1 month must not exceed— (a) 40% of the relevant amount where paragraph (2) applies, or (b) 20% of the relevant amount in any other case. (2) This paragraph applies where, in relation to any part of the recoverable amount, the liable person has— (a) been convicted of an offence whether under statute or otherwise, (b) made an admission after caution of deception or fraud for the purpose of obtaining benefit under the Social Security Administration Act 1992 or a tax credit under the Tax Credits Act 2002, or (c) agreed to pay a penalty under section 115A of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 (penalty as an alternative to prosecution) and the agreement has not been withdrawn. (3) In this regulation— “admission after caution” means— in England and Wales, an admission after a caution has been administered in accordance with a Code issued under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984, and in Scotland, an admission after a caution has been administered, such admission being duly witnessed by two persons.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
